The raging water would have overwhelmed us.

The water would have overpowered us; the current would have overwhelmed us.

to the one who spread out the earth over the water, for his loyal love endures,

The Lord’s shout is heard over the water; the majestic God thunders, the Lord appears over the surging water.

You destroyed the sea by your strength; you shattered the heads of the sea monster in the water.
